The symbol that is drawn by an indicator is controlled by SetIndexArrow syntax of and indicator.

SetIndexArrow(0,233);
SetIndexArrow(1,234);

These numbers are the Ascii Codes of 233/2344 in the WingDings font and it prints that font character on your chart. To return to the small dot, change both values back to 159.

If you want to try some other fun symbols change to
108 (Bigger dot)
40
58
71/72
171
175

You will need to recompile the indicator, and it will become effective immediatly.
Wingdings are actually a font similar to Ariel or Time New Roman.
You can go into Word, and change the font to Wingdings if you want.
There is also a table of the different symbols on the MQL4.COM web site. If you plan to do anything with and EA or indicator, this will become a favorite site.

What you mean is quality pips. Pips that can be made almost guaranteed. Most professional traders take this route. They know they are capable to get certain number of pips every month. It can be between 100 or more pips only. It is almost pressureless and emotionaless trading.

They play big lots, when translated to its monetary value, its worth more than anyone who made 500pips a day.
I think I know what you are talking about. The bank traders go for consistent high percentage pips rather than a lot of pips. I have a question: what are the lot sizes that they trade with in those type of trades. I am sure it is high but how high? Is it something around $100.00 a pip.. or maybe more?

Just a small update on this method: it's very efficient on Daily charts Almost on all pairs.

If you don't throw yourself into many trades you can earn pretty much with 3-4 pairs in 1 week.

Bogdan, thank you for your input here. Can you please explain how you are using this method with the daily charts? How do you enter/exit? What are your stop losses?

Thank you.

The signal in daily are quite good, but the stop?? should be big for internal move....
maybe check for confirmation in faster TF?

I'm just a newbies and i've just been introduced to tlatomi-tiga recently and i think it's very profitable for those who are pro and used to it.
I'm still confuse in making decision : whether go LONG or go SHORT.

Here are my questions :

1. Do we always have to let the "DOT", "CCI cross", and "5&9 MA crossover" appear prior of placing trade? Sometimes i notice that one of them does not appear.
2. Which one is the best time frame : 4HR or D1?


Thats all for this time.
Forex has never been this SO exciteD !!

Hi,

I am fallowing the tlatomi method for 1-1,5 month and it's really wonderfull method. i have planing to use it in live acc. but i have a problem. when i see dot, then croos of cci then ma cross alert and when nonlog turns yellow, i'm waiting for bar close, but when bar closed, the opposite dot appears. and i cannot decide to trade. also, i can't exit immediately because the dot repaints! what should i do? Anybody help me...

My results with the TIGA ABDUL with TLATOMI have been very good.
The consensus seems to be that the 4 hour chart is a lot safer to use than the 30 minute chart.I take entries off both time frames.On October 23, I made 118 pips on the 30minute chart on GBPUSD. OrangeRoshan - thanks for the information.

Tlatomi is a bit slow for the daily chart. You would do well to use it on the 4hr time frame. I tried it on the daily, because I like Tlatomi, and daily is the only time frame that I can profitably trade. I still use the silvertrend dot, but the 5-9 cross and the ergodic CCI are gone and replaced. What I use can't really be called Tlatomi anymore, but it is fast enough to work on the daily chart. As a trader the first thing you need to home in on is the time frame that you can best trade on, and then find or develop a method that will work for that time frame. It took me a while to figure that out, because I've never really heard anyone say that. Hopefully this will prove helpful to you. Figuring that out is why I now trade live , and why I picked up 150 pips today. If you don't settle on the time frame that is right for you, the whole process will take longer as you hop between time frames and methods. I'm not being critical, just trying to offer some useful advice. The dot is an early warning device. Trade based on the 5-9 and the CCI cross, but don't trade unless you have both of those dot or no dot.

just to add my five cents worth...and to help the new people to tlatomi....I have been trading for around five years and i have been using tlatomi for about 2 months on my live account...

I only use the 4hour time frame. and i only open a trade on a arrow and after I have confirmed the trade with my other indicators. But I have found the tlatomi method to be very succesfull...

As far as exit is concerened I always set my exits on the pivots if the trade breakes through i move to the next pivot and so on.

I hope this is of some help..

If you don't mind me asking what did you replace the 5-9 and cci with?

Thank you.

Respecting the rules from the pdf file.
Also never places a trade in daily chart if FX Sniper don't cross and separate a little.
And the NonLagMa should be present.
I also know there is a strong signal by adding a RSI 21 with 50 level - line must go above (for long) or under the line (for short). If RSI stays on the 50 level I don't place a trade because it's unstable and I look after 4-6 hours to see if there is time to get a good signal.

All the best.

Initially with the Fozzy cross. Now I use the Triple Hull RSI (8), which is a bit faster than Fozzy and has the cross built in using Hull MAs. I have the indicator posted in the My Favorite Indicator thread. Just watch for the SHI and wait for the RSI to cross and go, preferably with the major trend,unless the Bollinger bands indicate congestion or you're right against strong resistance or support (such trades don't get far.) The moving average cross and even the nonlag had me trading right into reversals on the daily chart with little to no profit, which is always the problem with moving averages - you miss half the trend. The Triple Hull RSI crosses almost as soon as the SHI dot appears, so I get most of the trend. This is a big modification of Tlatomi, but it does work beautifully, if you need to be on the daily chart (most people trading the Forex need to be on it). It also cuts out the little short choppy trades generated by just using the RSI - MA cross by itself like Fozzy. It's not quite Tlatomi and not quite Fozzy and probably doesn't belong in a discussion of either. So I'll leave it at that. Judex's system provided me my first real anchor in Forex, and I don't want to hijack his thread. I use it live and make money. So it does work. After I test it live for a few more months, I'll come back and post my own thread.

Yes, the rules for the Tlatomi Method in the first post mentions 4 hr time frame only so I will use the Bagovino Method on the 1 hour chart and the Tlatomi on the 4hour chart.
